Postnatal Yoga
Classes
“Your
life is transformed with a newborn baby, often in
unexpected ways. The experience of giving birth calls for a
new integration of your physical and spiritual
well-being.”
Francoise Barbira Freedman,
pre- and postnatal yoga teacher.
How can yoga help you celebrate this process of
transformation & integration & recover your
strength from within?

Taking the time to care for yourself

– 6 weeks:
During
this period it is appropriate to stay at home, and more
effective to practice short simple yoga routines that can
fit with daily rhythm. Rest is the foundation
of your well being during this time.
If during this period you would like yoga support, then
one-on-one sessions at home are more appropriate to focus
specifically on your personal needs, as well as
honoring the baby’s rhythm.
Most importantly: Breathing, sounding and relaxation to
balance, calm and energize.
